Yes everyone has posted great responses. I agree, be firm now. I have never had major issues with parents paying me. One time, I had a parent on subsidy that asked if she could pay Monday instead of Friday because she was going out of town. I told her that was fine just make sure even if dcb doesn't come in, to still please drop off payment. Monday comes, she doesn't come in, doesn't call, nothing. So I politely call and I get no response. Tuesday comes in and she gives her story and asks what the late fee is? I told her $20 and I would need it by end of day. She made a face, and asked if I was serious. I told her yes, I okayed until Monday, not Tuesday. No phonecall was made letting me know she wasn't back in town, etc so late fee had to be enforced.
Long story short, she paid me tuition PLUS late fee and was NEVER late again. She now respects me so much more and is always on top of everything. She is probably one of my favorite parents, even though things started out a little rough. Stand your grown.
